IS THEIR ONLY CRIME BEING KINS OF INSURGENTS? DETENTION OF PARENTS OF INSURGENTS WITHOUT TRIAL CONTINUES

However, men and women of wisdom and conscience are yet
to be seen at the statehouse with the aim to give wise counsel to the
executive to intervene and put an end to detention without trial.
What is the state trying to teach insurgents who are already dead?
Those who are alive are now charged in the US. The state has not
mentioned any casualty in the ranks of its security forces.
Magnanimity is the hallmark of a mature and decent political
leadership. Revenge is the hall mark of an uncouth and contemptuous
political leadership. A nation deserves a leadership which acts
without fear or favour, affection or ill will in accordance with law
and standards of best practice. It is the dictate of law that one must
not be punished for an offence one has not committed and without
relying on the due process of law.
The state should not remain quiet. Its role is to protect and not to
coerce its citizens.]]>
